I've used 4 trades so far, including a trade to Williamson this week which looks good initially, but if it's anything like my other correction trades he'll probably be dropped next week.

For me, I went Treloar and Parker when I could've gone Pendles and Bont. I came into this weekend right around 3000 in the overall, but holy hell I could've been top 100 probably had I made the right call on those two. I've already done 3 correction trades with the rookies and I have 1 more left...

I agree Shaw is no longer that must have, but I'd still back him to go close to 100 this year so I do want him at some point. If he drops really low early I may not be able to ignore him. The problem for me is I already have the two rd 13 bye players in Adams and Laird. I am actually pretty keen...

I would hold on Miller; he's already had a price rise, he's guaranteed to miss you a week, and Roughy just had his highest score of the year so far. I will be targeting Touk Miller in round 10. I think he should be a top 6 FWD and Gold Coast's run home is really good. Getting a couple of those...

nvm, I see you said round 2 emg. Even though he was rd 2 emergency, EVW did beat him out for that spot. I think if you have Joel Smith and Hibberd (like me), Smith is the trade out for Newman this week and then Hibberd is the trade out next week for either Berry or Williamson. I am particularly...

2180 for me and ranked 32k for the round. I'm ok with it considering I am holding Roo on the bench, but damn it hurts that I traded in Hannan to avoid a donut and then Eddy is a late in sitting on my bench. 45 points and a trade down the drain. Hopefully Hannan keeps his spot.

I ended up holding, but I had to trade Mitch Hannan in a week early to avoid a donut. Richardson said Friday that Roo was 1-2 weeks away and that he had done some running. That is good enough for me.

I don't think Parker was at less than 100%, the Swans midfield just got outplayed on the day. Parker's bad games have a tendency to drop into the 50's, so if this 81 represents a new floor for him he's got a chance to push 120 this year.

Yup, he's dropped. For me, that means I either need to trade Riewoldt, one of my dropped rookies, or cop a zero this week. I may have to eat my hat, trust everyone else's judgement, and go down to Steele hoping he's a keeper. That's the only way I can get Marchbank and WHE into my team. I really...

That's fair enough, but I want to see another week to know that his howlers are from being rusty and not from being a poor decision-maker. They were mistakes chipping it around in the backline if I recall correctly, which should be easy for him to clean up.

Jack Steele, IMO, will go around 85-90 average this year, which isn't quite good enough for me at 347k. His TOG won't be too big and he certainly won't take 2 contested marks a game with only 1 clanger. I don't think he was a bad starting pick, and I certainly could be unders on what I guessed...

I have Roo as well, but I also have Nank and Macrae so I'm not looking at them. I'd go down to Macrae if you have decided to trade for sure. If I didn't start with Nank I'd want another look before I pull the trigger on him. I don't have Steele, but I'm not too keen on him...probably, like Nank...

I noticed that Fantasy Freako had a reply on Twitter yesterday where he said that players don't receive points for clearances. That is fairly surprising, but I guess they get a guaranteed contested possession and then probably the 2 points for a "gather from hitout" which replaces the need to...

Yup, you're right, I needed to scroll down and read the fine print (it was under a section called "The Champion Data Difference" and not under "How You'll Score Points"); so maybe this whole thread was my bad...apologies. It was a fun thought experiment I guess. What I really wonder is why the...

SC is a lottery for legal purposes? That's interesting, because over here that's a big legal problem and a lot of the big gambling fantasy sports are in court battles to be classified as games of skill. It's not much of a lottery for me, I'm not eligible for prizes, I just play for fun...

I reckon it is...they gave us a list last year of everything and explained it. They gave us a list this year they just didn't write articles about it. I guess the purpose of this thread is to discover, for sure, whether or not these things on their list are all they use to determine scores. It's...

Yeah, I think they're just having a problem with live scoring. But, this brings up another point: I don't see rebound 50s or inside 50s listed as giving any points. Inside 50s are something that Treloar had an absolute boatload of, but didn't get rewarded for so I don't think they matter.

I believe goal assists and score assists are the same thing: the player who disposes of it to the goal kicker gets one. There is a herald sun article from last year entitled "Score Assists Explained" or something of the sort that I can't get into if you want to make sure. Either way, I don't see...

He's not a forward, which really hurts if he gets dropped after only 1-2 price rises. He is a big risk, and I am willing to wait 2 weeks to make my decision with my current low cash-in-bank situation.

I disagree: he only had 1 goal assist...so I don't think that would've done much to his score. He lead his team in contested possessions (only 12 though) and went at 81.8% efficiency with only 1 clanger. He kicked his two goals at super important times and seemed to be getting his possessions...
